How AI is used

ApproveThis is an approval workflow tool designed to move requests through a defined chain of command. Users can submit requests via forms or email, which are then routed to approvers based on custom rules, such as dollar thresholds or specific roles.

The platform supports workflows involving external parties. Clients, vendors, and partners can approve or deny requests directly from their email inbox using a secure link, which may reduce the need for manual follow-ups.

For internal management, the platform provides audit trails and version history to track changes and decisions. It also includes AI-driven features for extracting data from documents and generating forms from text descriptions.

Buyers should consider their monthly volume of requests, as pricing is based on the number of approval requests processed per month.
